Description
Formulación de vesículas liposomales en soluciones acuosas con características de película lagrimal.Formulation of liposomal vesicles in aqueous solutions with tear film characteristics.
La presente invención se refiere a la formulación de vesículas liposomales en soluciones acuosas con características de película lagrimal. La presente invención describe una formulación de liposomas en vehículos acuosos que contienen mucina o sustancias similares a la mucina, sustancias mucomiméticas o polímeros con propiedades mucoadhesivas que, a la temperatura de la superficie corneal, presentan características similares a la película precorneal del ojo humano. Dicha preparación podría ser utilizada en sustitución de la película natural y como preparado medicinal en algunas patologías del ojo como es el caso del síndrome de ojo seco.The present invention relates to the formulation of liposomal vesicles in aqueous solutions with tear film characteristics. The present invention describes a liposome formulation in aqueous vehicles that contain mucin or mucin-like substances, substances mucomimetics or polymers with mucoadhesive properties that, at the corneal surface temperature, have characteristics similar to the precorneal film of the human eye. Bliss Preparation could be used instead of the film natural and as a medicinal preparation in some eye diseases as is the case with dry eye syndrome.
Esta invención se encuadra dentro de las áreas de farmacia y medicina.This invention fits within the areas of pharmacy and medicine.
La superficie ocular se sabe que esta formada por el epitelio conjuntival, el epitelio corneal, las glándulas lacrimales accesorias y las glándulas de meibomio. Dicha superficie se encuentra recubierta por una película continua, de un espesor de aproximadamente 10 \mum, denominada película precorneal o film lagrimal. Hasta hace pocos años la estructuración teórica, generalmente aceptada, incluía tres tipos de componentes (lipídico, seroacuoso y mucinoso) repartidos en tres capas: lipídica, acuosa y mucinosa (Ibrahim H, Buri P, Gurny R. Pharm Acta Helv 1988, 63:146-53).The ocular surface is known to be formed by conjunctival epithelium, corneal epithelium, glands accessory lachrymal and meibomian glands. That surface It is covered by a continuous film, with a thickness of approximately 10 µm, called precorneal film or film tear Until a few years ago the theoretical structuring, generally accepted, it included three types of components (lipid, sero-aqueous and mucinous) distributed in three layers: lipidic, aqueous and mucinosa (Ibrahim H, Buri P, Gurny R. Pharm Acta Helv 1988, 63: 146-53).
Estudios recientes consideran que la película precorneal es una estructura formada por los componentes acuoso-proteicos y mucinosos combinados para formar un gel hidratado. A su vez, este gel quedaría protegido por una película de carácter lipídico, cuyos componentes serían producidos principalmente por las glándulas de meibomio y cuya función seria impedir la evaporación de la lágrima y mejorar la estabilidad de la película lacrimal (Pflugfelder SC, Solomon A, Stern ME. Cornea 2000; 19 (5): 644-649. McCulley JP, Shine W. Tr Am Ophth Soc 1997; 95: 79-93).Recent studies consider the film precorneal is a structure formed by the components aqueous-protein and mucinous combined to form a hydrated gel In turn, this gel would be protected by a lipid film, whose components would be produced mainly by the meibomian glands and whose function would be prevent the evaporation of the tear and improve the stability of the tear film (Pflugfelder SC, Solomon A, Stern ME. Cornea 2000; 19 (5): 644-649. McCulley JP, Shine W. Tr Am Ophth Soc 1997; 95: 79-93).
De acuerdo con el modelo propuesto, la película precorneal constaría de dos fases:According to the proposed model, the film Precorneal would consist of two phases:
- Fase polar hidrofílica, en contacto con la capa acuo-mucinosa que esta compuesta por fosfolípidos, esfingomielina, ceramidas y cerebrósidos.- Hydrophilic polar phase, in contact with the aqueous-mucinous layer that is composed of phospholipids, sphingomyelin, ceramides and cerebrosides.
- Fase no polar hidrofóbica en contacto con la atmósfera y compuesta por lípidos no polares tales como ésteres de cera, ésteres de colesterol, triglicéridos, ácidos grasos libres e hidrocarburos.- Non-polar hydrophobic phase in contact with the atmosphere and composed of non-polar lipids such as esters of wax, cholesterol esters, triglycerides, free fatty acids and hydrocarbons
La fracción de fosfolípidos representa
aproximadamente entre el 1 - 5% del total de la secreción lipídica,
siendo el de mayor concentración la fosfatidilcolina (FC) con un
porcentaje cercano al 40% del total de fosfolípidos. Otros
fosfolípidos, como la fosfatidiletanolamina aparecen en un
porcentaje del 18%, encontrándose los restantes (un total de 10) en
un rango comprendido entre el 3 y el 9%. Probablemente, esta
fracción produce una disminución de la tensión
superficial de
la fase acuosa facilitando la extensibilidad de la película
precomeal durante el movimiento de parpadeo.The phospholipid fraction represents approximately 1-5% of the total lipid secretion, with the highest concentration being phosphatidylcholine (FC) with a percentage close to 40% of the total phospholipids. Other phospholipids, such as phosphatidylethanolamine appear in a percentage of 18%, the remaining ones (a total of 10) being in a range between 3 and 9%. Probably, this fraction produces a decrease in tension
surface of the aqueous phase facilitating the extensibility of the precomeal film during the flickering movement.
El tratamiento usual del ojo seco consiste en
aliviar los síntomas mediante la aplicación de sustitutos de las
lágrimas por vía tópica. La composición típica de estos preparados
incluye soluciones poliméricas como la recogida en la U.S, patent No
4,973,580 (Babiole) en la que la formulación oftálmica incluye
ácido hialurónico empleando como conservante peróxido de hidrógeno.
También se describen formulaciones en las que se aportan
componentes semejantes a la película lagrimal como soluciones
hipotónicas de lecitina incluyendo agentes viscosizantes derivados
de la celulosa como aparece en la U.S. patent No. 4,421,748
(Trager). La utilización de fosfolípidos para el tratamiento del
ojo seco aparece en diversas patentes. Se describen sistemas tipo
emulsión conteniendo fosfolípidos cargados positivamente como las
descritas en las siguientes: U.S. patent No. 4,914,088 (1990)
(Korb:); 5,278,151 (1994) (Korb:); 5,371,108 (1994) (Korb:),
5,294,607 (1994) (Korb:). Asimismo se describen liposomas cargados
positivamente U.S. patent No 4,804,539 (Guo) (1989) y U.S. Patent
No 4,818,537 (Guo) en las que se emplean liposomas con carga
positiva que se suspenden en soluciones acuosas conteniendo
polímeros de alta viscosidad como la hidroxietilcelulosa,
metilcelulosa, hidroxipropilcelulosa y derivados vinílicos como la
polivinilpirrolidona, polivinilalcohol y sus mezclas. También se
recogen
emulsiones conteniendo fosfolípidos, aceites no
polares y emulsificantes como la U.S. Patent No 6,656,460
(Benita).The usual treatment of dry eye is to relieve symptoms by applying tear substitutes topically. The typical composition of these preparations includes polymeric solutions such as the one collected in US, patent No. 4,973,580 (Babiole) in which the ophthalmic formulation includes hyaluronic acid using hydrogen peroxide as a preservative. Formulations are also described in which tear film-like components are provided as hypotonic solutions of lecithin including cellulose derived viscosifying agents as it appears in US Patent No. 4,421,748 (Trager). The use of phospholipids for the treatment of dry eye appears in various patents. Emulsion-like systems containing positively charged phospholipids are described as described in the following: US Patent No. 4,914,088 (1990) (Korb :); 5,278,151 (1994) (Korb :); 5,371,108 (1994) (Korb :), 5,294,607 (1994) (Korb :). Positively charged liposomes are also described US patent No. 4,804,539 (Guo) (1989) and US Patent No. 4,818,537 (Guo) in which positively charged liposomes are used which are suspended in aqueous solutions containing high viscosity polymers such as hydroxyethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose and vinyl derivatives such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl alcohol and mixtures thereof. They are also collected
emulsions containing phospholipids, non-polar oils and emulsifiers such as US Patent No. 6,656,460 (Benite).
En ninguna de estas patentes aparece la utilización de liposomas neutros o con carga negativa que se desestabilicen a la temperatura de la película precorneal ni que se asocien con mucina o con sustancias mucoadhesivas o semejantes a la mucina o mucomiméticas como es el caso de la invención que se describe a continuación.In none of these patents does the use of neutral or negatively charged liposomes that destabilize at the temperature of the precorneal film or that associated with mucin or with mucoadhesive substances or similar to mucin or mucomimetics as is the case of the invention that described below.
El método objeto de la invención que aquí se describe se refiere a la preparación de una formulación farmacéutica que actúa como sustituto de la película precorneal. La formulación incorpora vesículas liposomales de fosfolípidos como fase polar hidrofílica y lípidos no polares, ambos vehiculizados en soluciones acuosas que contengan mucina ó sustancias con propiedades semejantes a la mucina o sustancias mucomiméticas o polímeros mucoadhesivos. Las ventajas más relevantes de esta invención consisten en la utilización de fosfatidilcolina cuya temperatura de transición es inferior a la temperatura de la superficie de la córnea y además incorpora polímeros o sustancias mucoadhesivas y/o mucomiméticas (mucina o polímeros como el ácido hialuronico, derivados de la celulosa, condroitín sulfato, quitosano, ácido colomínico, derivados tiólicos u otro componente similar).The method object of the invention herein describe refers to the preparation of a formulation pharmaceutical that acts as a substitute for the precorneal film. The formulation incorporates phospholipid liposomal vesicles as hydrophilic polar phase and non-polar lipids, both vehiculized in aqueous solutions containing mucin or substances with Mucin-like properties or mucomimetic substances or mucoadhesive polymers. The most relevant advantages of this invention consist of the use of phosphatidylcholine whose transition temperature is lower than the temperature of the surface of the cornea and also incorporates polymers or substances mucoadhesive and / or mucomimetic (mucin or polymers such as acid hyaluronic, cellulose derivatives, chondroitin sulfate, chitosan, colominic acid, thiol derivatives or other component Similary).
Los componentes de la formulación y en concreto los fosfolípidos que componen los liposomas van a permitir la formación, en la superficie corneal, tras la desestabilización de las vesículas liposomales, de una película monomolecular insoluble en agua que actúa impidiendo la evaporación de la fase acuosa y, además, van a disminuir la tensión superficial de esta última lo que favorece su rápida extensibilidad. Los liposomas se preparan con fosfatidilcolina obtenida a partir de lecitina de soja como componente mayoritario, colesterol y \alpha-tocoferol. La fosfatidilcolina contiene restos acilos de ácidos grasos insaturados presentando una temperatura de transición inferior a la temperatura de la superficie de la córnea, lo que garantiza la rápida formación de la película sobre la fase acuosa, una vez aplicada en la superficie de la córnea. El colesterol, por su parte, estabiliza esta película al reducir la fluidez de la matriz formada por los restos poliinsaturados de la fosfatidilcolina. Finalmente el \alpha-tocoferol asegura la estabilidad química de los dobles enlaces evitando la posible peroxidación.The components of the formulation and specifically the phospholipids that make up the liposomes will allow the formation, on the corneal surface, after the destabilization of the liposomal vesicles, of an insoluble monomolecular film in water that acts preventing the evaporation of the aqueous phase and, In addition, the surface tension of the latter will decrease which favors its rapid extensibility. Liposomes are prepared with phosphatidylcholine obtained from soy lecithin as major component, cholesterol and α-tocopherol. Phosphatidylcholine contains acyl residues of unsaturated fatty acids presenting a transition temperature lower than surface temperature of the cornea, which guarantees the rapid formation of the film on the aqueous phase, once applied on the surface of the cornea. Cholesterol, meanwhile, stabilizes this film by reduce the fluidity of the matrix formed by the remains polyunsaturated phosphatidylcholine. Finally the α-tocopherol ensures the chemical stability of the double bonds avoiding the possible peroxidation.
Los liposomas se vehiculizan en solución acuosa que contiene un agente isotonizante (trehalosa, cloruro sódico, glucosa...) para conseguir la osmolaridac adecuada según su uso clínico. Las soluciones podrán ser isotónicas, o hipotónicas, Una vez formados los liposomas se incorporan en soluciones acuosas que contengan una o varias sustancias o polímeros con características mucoadhesivas o mucomiméticas con la finalidad de producir un aumento en el tiempo de permanencia de la formulación y de los componentes de los liposomas desestabilizados sobre la superficie ocular. Así se favorece el mantenimiento de la nueva película una vez formada y se evita la evaporación acuosa de la superficie corneal. Las concentraciones de este último componente dependerán de la viscosidad final deseada en la formulación, de su interacción con la mucina, de su tensión superficial y del comportamiento reológico esperado tras su administración. También se incluyen proteínas en la formulación con el fin de favorecer la estabilidad de la película formada y mejorar sus propiedades lubricantes. Estas proteínas se encuentran en las lágrimas naturales y pueden ser \alpha-macroglobulina, lisozima, lipocalina y lactoferrina.Liposomes are transported in aqueous solution which contains an isotonizing agent (trehalose, sodium chloride, glucose ...) to get the appropriate osmolaridac according to its use clinical. The solutions may be isotonic, or hypotonic, One once formed the liposomes are incorporated into aqueous solutions that contain one or more substances or polymers with characteristics mucoadhesive or mucomimetic in order to produce a increase in the residence time of the formulation and of the components of the destabilized liposomes on the surface ocular. Thus the maintenance of the new film is favored a once formed and prevents aqueous evaporation of the surface corneal The concentrations of this last component will depend of the desired final viscosity in the formulation, of its interaction with mucin, its surface tension and behavior rheological expected after administration. Also included proteins in the formulation in order to promote stability of the film formed and improve its lubricating properties. These proteins are found in natural tears and can be α-macroglobulin, lysozyme, lipocalin and lactoferrin

Los liposomas base se prepararon a partir de fosfatidilcolina procedente de soja, y colesterol (8:1) y se reconstituyeron con agua y soluciones hipotónicas de cloruro sódico. Se estudio la influencia del proceso de sonicación en el tamaño final de las vesículas comparando la utilización de una sonda de ultrasonidos durante 2,5 min. y un baño de ultrasonidos durante 15 min. (Figura 1). El rendimiento del proceso de preparación de las vesículas lipídicas, en ambos casos, fue superior a un 90%.The base liposomes were prepared from phosphatidylcholine from soybeans, and cholesterol (8: 1) and reconstituted with water and hypotonic sodium chloride solutions. The influence of the sonication process on the final size of the vesicles was studied by comparing the use of an ultrasound probe for 2.5 min. and an ultrasonic bath for 15 min. (Figure 1). The yield of the process of preparation of the lipid vesicles, in both cases, was greater than 90%.
Las dispersiones de los liposomas en agua a una concentración de FC de 20 mg/ml presentaron unos valores de pH comprendidos entre 6,9 y 7,2. Los diámetros medios de partículas para los distintos lotes preparados con baño de ultrasonidos oscilaron entre 392 y 478 nm. El porcentaje de partículas superiores a 1 \mum fue, en todos los casos, inferior al 2%.Dispersions of liposomes in water at a FC concentration of 20 mg / ml showed pH values between 6.9 and 7.2. The average particle diameters for the different batches prepared with ultrasonic bath they oscillated between 392 and 478 nm.

Se realizaron pruebas de viabilidad celular con soluciones acuosas hipotónicas de liposomas base y de liposomas base con vitamina E en cultivos celulares de macrófagos. Para el estudio de citotoxicidad se utilizó la técnica de reducción, a nivel mitocondrial, de la sal bromuro de 3(4,5-dimetiltiazol-2-il)-2,5-difeniltetrazolio (MTT) a un producto coloreado (formazán) (Mossman T. J Immun Methods 1983, 65:55-63). Se emplearon macrófagos peritoneales obtenidos de ratones Swiss machos. Las células fueron expuestas a formulaciones que contenían soluciones acuosas hipotónicas de liposomas base. Como control negativo se utilizó medio de cultivo y como control positivo cloruro de benzalconio al 0,005%. Las soluciones se incubaron a 37ºC durante 1 y 4 horas. Los resultados obtenidos demostraron una tolerancia óptima para los liposomas base con y sin vitamina E (Figuras 3 y 4).Cell viability tests were performed with hypotonic aqueous solutions of base liposomes and base liposomes with vitamin E in macrophage cell cultures. For the cytotoxicity study, the mitochondrial level reduction of the bromide salt of 3 (4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl) -2,5-diphenyltetrazolium (MTT) to a colored product (formazan) was used ( Mossman T. J Immun Methods 1983, 65: 55-63). Peritoneal macrophages obtained from male Swiss mice were used. The cells were exposed to formulations containing hypotonic aqueous solutions of base liposomes. As a negative control, culture medium was used and as a positive control 0.005% benzalkonium chloride. The solutions were incubated at 37 ° C for 1 and 4 hours. The results obtained demonstrated an optimal tolerance for the base liposomes with and without vitamin E (Figures 3 and 4).
